However, to my knowledge there is no way to specifically target an enemy's parts to disadvantage them or prioritize their most dangerous armaments. Oh, and your mech body parts can suffer cumulative damage and be destroyed during missions, but you can salvage mech parts from fallen enemies, mainly your arms and weapons. There's also the option to disembark your and fight on foot but there is basically no reason to do this unless your mech is destroyed or you invest heavily in skills that allow you to repair yourself.

Unfortunately this led the game devs to make your mech enemies zip around like gibbons on meth and pull maneuvers you can't even keep track of let alone do with your own mech.

Now, this game does have a leg up on Armored Core due to your mech being more lightweight and maneuverable (and having unlimited flight time), feeling more like you're piloting a jet-propelled exosuit as opposed to a massive human-shaped tank. These also feature the game's most obnoxious RNG aspects: beating the boss gives you a random amount of blueprint progress for special parts, but there are also items that only unlock via a drop chance after beating the boss - I had to beat Aviator over 20 times in a row just to get its unique SMG, and often gave up on some of the unlocks from the more annoying bosses. There are online features like Armored Core V and Verdict Day, but this game's online is also effectively dead so good luck with that.Įven if you and a friend buy the game together, co-op is limited to either 2 options for procedural and yet very repetitive "dungeons" to explore, or playing slight variations of the story mode's boss fights as well as a few other bosses that aren't noteworthy for anything aside from being extremely annoying or gimmicky to fight.

That's about where the similarities with Armored Core end. Yes, you can customize the parts and weapons of your mech with a wide variety of gear like machine guns, explosives, shields, and even swords.

That and the game just didn't stick with me for the right reasons after all was said and done. I'm leaving my review as negative to grab your attention and help people avoid my mistake of buying this game in the hopes of finding an Armored Core-like to scratch that long-neglected itch (FromSoft pls!).
